Louis-Antoine de Bougainville
Eighteenth Century French Sailor, Soldier, Statesman, Mathematician and leader of a Voyage around the world
The French Sailor, Soldier, Statesman and Mathematician, Louis-Antoine de Bougainville, was one of the most interesting characters of the Eighteenth Century. Born in Paris in 1729, he led a voyage around the world in the 1760s which had far-reaching repercussions in the way European Society perceived life in the Pacific. The notion of the "Noble savage" had some of its roots in the reports given by members of Bougainville's expedition of their short time on the island of Tahiti.

A short biography of Louis-Antoine de Bougainville, 1729-1811
The French Sailor, Soldier, Statesman and Mathematician, Louis-Antoine de Bougainville, was one of the most interesting characters of the Eighteenth Century. Born in Paris in 1729, he started the first settlement in the Iles Malouines (Falkland Islands); he led a voyage around the world in the 1760s; he fought in the American War of Independence; he wrote mathematical treatises and was elected to scientific academies; and he survived a duel and the French Revoloution to become a friend of Napoleon and grow roses. After his death in 1811 he had islands, mountains and plants named after him. He was a Renaissance man in the Enlightenment. 1729-1755 Early Life

1729-1755 Early Life Louis-Antoine de Bougainville was born on 12 November 1729, the youngest of the three children of Pierre-Yves de Bougainville and Marie-Francoise d'Arboulin. It is thought that the Bougainvilles originally came from the Picardy region of France, north of Paris, though when the family moved to Paris is uncertain. A small village a few kilometres east of Amiens is called Bougainville. The family lived at 21 Rue de la Barre du Bec (it later became part of the Rue du Temple) near the Chatelet where Pierre-Yves was a notary. Their first child was Jean-Pierre, born on 1 December 1722 and he was followed in 1727 by the only daughter, Marie-Francoise, named after her mother.

BOUGAINVILLE, LOUIS ANTOINE DE
In reply to Thomas Paine’s Age of Reason, he published the Age of Revelation (1790); he also published a volume entitled A Star in the West, or a Humble Attempt to Discover the Long Lost Ten Tribes of Israel (1816), in which he endeavours to prove that the American Indians may be the ten lost tribes. Boudinot died at Burlington, New Jersey, on the 24th of October 1821. See The Life, Public Services, Addresses and Letters of Elias Boudinol, edited by J. J. Boudinot (Boston and New York, 1896). See F Vie du Mal. de Bouffleri (Lille, 1852), and Père His ~Euvres completes were published under his own supervision n 1803. A selection of his stories in prose and verse was edited by Eugene Asse in 1878; his Poésies by 0. Uzanne iii 1886; and the Correspondance inédite de la comtesse de Sabran et du chevalier de Boufflers (1778—1788), by E. de Magnieu and Henri Prat in 1875. advantage of the easterly monsoon, which carried them to Batavia. In March 1769 the expedition arrived at St Malo, with the loss of only seven out of upwards of 200 men. Bougainville’s account of the voyage (Paris, 1771) is written. with simplicity and some humour. After an interval of several years, he again accepted a naval command and saw much active service between 1779 and 1782. In the memorable engagement of the 12th of April Bougainville’s name is given to the largest member of the Solomon Islands, which belongs to Germany; and to the strait which divides it from the British island of Choiseul. It is also applied to the strait between Mallicollo and Espiritu Santo Islands of the New Hebrides group, and the South American climbing plant Bougainvillea, often cultivated in greenhouses, is named after him.

BOUGAINVILLE, Louis Antoine de Together three volumes, octavo, the 'Voyage' in two volumes, with 24 maps and plates; half-titles in all three volumes; in fine contemporary French bindings of mottled calf, spines gilt, gilt arms on covers. The first French account of Cook's first voyage and the revised edition of Bougainville's narrative: a beautiful set in original French bindings with uniform provenance from a noble European library. The two works in three volumes were published as a coherent set, and the three volumes here have clearly always formed a set, with matching library labels showing continuous numbering, and matching coats-of-arms in gilt on their covers. Their bindings are complementary though not precisely uniform: exactly the same spine tools are used for the third volume, though in a sightly different pattern, while the edges of the third volume are stained red unlike the sprinkled blue edges of the first two.
The first two volumes of the set contain the revised and augmented version of Bougainville's narrative of his circumnavigation, which had been published in its quarto format in 1771 (see previous entry). Often considered to be the "best" edition, this second version adds a 'Discours préliminaire' on discoveries in the Pacific since Magellan which takes Cook's First Voyage (1768-71) into account. This copy corresponds to the first of the two distinct settings identified by Du Rietz in the Kroepelien catalogue.
The third volume or Supplément contains the first French edition of the earliest published account of Cook's first voyage, the anonymous work nowadays attributed to the midshipman James Magra; the French edition adds an extensive 'Lettre de M. de Commerson à M. de La Lande. De l'île de Bourbon, le 18 avril 1771'. As Du Rietz points out in the Kroepelien catalogue, while there were two issues of this publication, one (as here) describing itself as the supplement to Bougainville's account, there is no evident priority between the two which should rather be seen as simultaneous issues.

BOUGAINVILLE, Louis Antoine de Quarto, with twenty engraved charts, mostly folding, and three plates of boats; a few stains to endpapers and half-title but an excellent copy in handsome contemporary French cat's paw mottled calf, spine gilt with raised bands; contemporary armorial bookplate. First edition of Bougainville's narrative of his important voyage, the first French circumnavigation. Bougainville's description of his travels in the Pacific created enormous interest in Europe and was largely responsible for building up the romantic vision of a South Sea paradise where Rousseau's noble savage lived in a state of blissful innocence.
Bougainville's expedition passed through the Straits of Magellan in January 1768. After some time looking for the mythical "Davis Land", said to be off the Chilean coast, they started on a direct route across the Pacific. They discovered the Tuamotus, sighted Tahiti in April, then visited Samoa, sailed through Melanesia, sighted the Great Barrier Reef, and passed through the Solomons and New Britain, to Batavia.
Bougainville, not knowing of Wallis's stop there a year earlier, thought that he had discovered Tahiti, and his lengthy account of the island group is an interesting counterpart to Wallis's account. The vocabulary of 300 words that he prints is the first such vocabulary of any Polynesian language to appear.

Francia 1729 - 1811
Alistado en la marina de guerra francesa, tenía a su cargo una fragata que formó parte de la flota que en 1764 se apoderó de las islas Malvinas, a las que dio nombre. Realizó un viaje exploratorio por el estrecho de Magallanes , tomando datos útiles sobre la ruta y los territorios visitados que son recogidos por el benedictino Dom Perraty en su obra "Histoire d´un voyage aux iles Malouines" y por el mismo Bougainville en su "Voyage autour du monde". Obligado a devolver las Malvinas a la Corona española en 1766 por el gobierno francés, emprende una expedición científica con el objetivo de dar la vuelta al globo, haciéndose acompañar de naturalistas, dibujantes y astrónomos. Así, comienza su periplo en 1766, surcando un año más tarde el estrecho de Magallanes y visitando las islas Pomotú. Este mismo año toma posesión para Francia de Haití, si bien antes lo había realizado Queirós en 1606 y Wallis ocho meses antes. Su viaje le llevó a Samoa y el archipiélago de las Salomón, cuya ubicación había sido ignorada desde su descubrimiento por Mendaña en 1567. Llegó a Nueva Guinea, las Molucas y Java, volviendo a Francia en 1769. Las impresiones y notas de su viaje aparecen publicadas en 1779, siendo además un elemento de apoyo y difusión a la teoría ilustrada acerca del carácter bondadoso del hombre en naturaleza. A los 65 años el gobierno francés le denegó el permiso para organizar una travesía al Polo. En premio a sus servicios prestados
